The Iron Empire
The Iron Empire Overview
The Iron Empire is a large country to the North of The Kingdom of Mana and South of Alira.
It used to be part of sections of The Kingdom of Mana and Alira but hundreds of years ago the iron workers rallied together and formed their own military and country, driving out the former rulers and creating a new capital called Iron City.
Interestingly, The Iron Empire is not technically an empire but the name stuck.
Power Structure
The Iron Empire is an elected meritocracy, in which the government is formed of officials elected by the people based on their area of expertise. This means that officials are often chosen from union leaders, academics and other influential positions.
Legal Structure
The Iron Empire has elected judges from those who study law who have final say over the verdict and sentencing of crimes and civil disputes. Any entity convicted has the right to request review from a party of three other judges if they believe the ruling to be unfair or unjust.
